Who makes the OEM serpentine belt?

Just wondering who they contract out for that. Gonna put a new belt on when I do the dampener just because I'll be in there, 105k and 8+ years and the stock one still looks good. I'll probably just run another OEM belt I think, not sure yet. Hard to argue with that kind of service life though. Thanks!

I had a Goodyear Gatorback belt on my last truck, a '98 12v, for 180k and it was still good when I sold it. This belt also eliminates the "chirp", if this is a problem, when the engine stops.
